It Chapter Two
Get ready to float again : the trailer forIT Chapter Twois here . A sequel to 2017’sITmovie , Chapter Twoadapts the 2nd one-half of Stephen King ’s horror novel for the heavy screen . Writer Gary Dauberman and director Andy Muschietti are both back forChapter Two , and are joined byactors like James McAvoy , Jessica Chastain , Bill Hader , Jay Ryan and Isaiah Mustafa as the now center - aged members of the Losers ' Club . SelectITcast members also returned for the follow-up , include the youngsters who portray the Losers as teenagers and ( of course ) Bill Skarsgård asthe child - crunch Pennywise .
Warner Bros. has been make relaxed about rolling out the marketing forIT Chapter Twoso far , but for adept reason . The originalITis the highest grossing R - give away horror film of all time ( not correct for ticket Leontyne Price ostentation ) , so there ’s clearly already a need for the second part of the story . Nevertheless , with less than four months to go before the sequel ’s going andthe summer movie seasonalready underway , now seems like an appropriate prison term for WB and New Line to get the clump roll on advance this one .

The studiosannounced theIT Chapter Twotrailerwas on the way earlier this week , when they unveiled a tormenter video in NYC ’s Time Square . Thepreviewis now online ahead of its premiere in theaters , along with a brand - new mystifier post-horse . you may ascertain both out in the quad below .
By the flavour of things , this is the same drone as theIT Chapter Twopreview that WB screened at CinemaConin April . The majority of the television is taken from a view where a 27 - long time older Beverly Marsh ( Chastain ) visits her puerility home in Derry , only to encounter a mysterious old charwoman living there instead of her father ( non - plunderer : it ’s really Pennywise in disguise ) . It ’s a clever way of establishing the main conflict inChapter Two ; namely , Pennywise is back and the Losers have to return to Derry to stop him , while at the same clip face their own traumatic breeding . The poke later ends with a sizzle bobbin of the Losers ' Club together again and being terrorise by their sometime enemy , including a peculiarly memorable - and bizarre - moment from King ’s source materialinvolving Pennywise and a giant Paul Bunyan statue .
So far , the merchandising forIT Chapter Twosuggests the sequel will adapt King ’s book the same way its predecessor did , as far as the overall tone and mode are concerned . That might ’ve gone without order , seeing as bothITmovies had ( essentially ) the same creative team , but it ’s no doubt comforting news for the many people who enjoyed Muschietti ’s premature adaptation and are unrestrained to see him bring that story to a close here . King , for his part , is an blunt buff of the firstITfilm and hasalready voiced his approval of the sequel . As for everyone else : they ’ll have to wait a few more months to see if Muschietti and hisIT Chapter Twocast have delivered the good , as promise .
